I've been wondering about the basic reproduction rate (R0). I don't seem to hear much about it anymore. They used to say this stuff was really easy to transmit and that was a huge problem. I can't tell if that is still considered true.

That would be interesting to find out. That would most likely have an influence on level headed planners for safe re-opening.

"They used to say this stuff was really easy to transmit"

It is highly transmittable, but that's only meaningful when discussing a large number of people, a population.

At the individual level you may get the bug and I don't.
